About the Job

Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience in cloud infrastructure, platform engineering, Site Reliability Engineering, or reliability-focused architecture roles.
  • Deep understanding of disaster recovery concepts, including recovery time objectives and recovery point objectives, blast radius reduction, failure domains, and dependency isolation.
  • Proven experience designing and implementing multi-region and multi-availability-zone architectures.
  • Hands-on experience moving systems toward active-active or highly available architectures.
  • Strong grasp of data replication strategies, consistency tradeoffs, and recovery patterns for databases and stateful systems.
  • Extensive experience with major cloud providers; AWS is preferred, and Google Cloud Platform or Azure is acceptable.
  • Strong understanding of managed cloud services and their disaster recovery characteristics and limitations.
  • Experience with Kubernetes-based platforms, including regional failover, workload portability, and cluster recovery strategies.
  • Familiarity with global traffic management, Domain Name System, load balancing, and service mesh patterns.
  • Experience designing and maintaining Infrastructure as Code using tools such as Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation, or Ansible.
  • Strong focus on automation for recovery workflows, failover testing, and environment provisioning.
  • Ability to eliminate manual recovery steps and reduce time to recovery through software.
  • Experience defining and running disaster recovery tests, game days, and failure simulations.
  • Ability to work across organizational boundaries to influence priorities and standards.
  • Strong documentation and communication skills, with the ability to translate complex technical risk into business impact.

Responsibilities

  • Evaluate and mature the organization’s disaster recovery posture, including recovery objectives, dependency mapping, and failure domain analysis across applications, data, and infrastructure.
  • Define, document, and establish disaster recovery standards and best practices across cloud infrastructure, platforms, and application architectures.
  • Partner with Site Reliability Engineering, platform, security, and product engineering teams to design and implement resilient, fault-tolerant systems, progressing from backup-based recovery to multi-region and active-active architectures.
  • Lead the disaster recovery roadmap, balancing technical feasibility, cost, risk, and business priorities.
  • Design and recommend reference architectures for disaster recovery patterns, including pilot-light, warm standby, hot standby, and active-active.
  • Drive adoption of active-active disaster recovery for critical systems, including traffic management, data replication, consistency models, and automated failover.
  • Define and operationalize disaster recovery testing strategies, including game days, chaos testing, and regular recovery exercises.
  • Establish documentation, runbooks, and escalation paths to ensure recoverability is well understood and not dependent on individuals.
  • Evaluate and recommend platform upgrades, cloud services, and tooling that improve resilience, recovery speed, and reliability.
  • Serve as a technical authority and advisor on disaster recovery and resilience for leadership and engineering teams.
  • Provide architectural guidance, design reviews, and mentorship to engineers implementing disaster recovery-related changes.
  • Partner with security and compliance teams to ensure disaster recovery strategies meet regulatory, audit, and data protection requirements.
